* * * * * The Recording Academy has announced that The O'Jays' "For the Love of Money"- written by Kenny Gamble, Leon Huff and Anthony Jackson - is among 26 recordings that will be inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame in 2016. This marks the second induction of a song from Gamble & Huff, following the duo's "Love Train," also performed by The O'Jays.

In announcing the Grammy Hall of Fame's latest additions, The Recording Academy president/CEO Neil Portnow said, "Spanning more than 50 years, the 2016 entries are an outstanding collection, marked by both historical and cultural significance. These works have influenced and inspired both music creators and fans for generations."

The GRAMMY Hall Of Fame was established by The Recording Academy's National Trustees in 1973 to honor recordings of lasting qualitative or historical significance that are at least 25 years old. Inductees are selected annually by a special member committee of eminent and knowledgeable professionals from all branches of the recording arts.

In other recent news, Gamble & Huff had a pair of No. 1 disco classics-"Don't Leave Me This Way" by Thelma Houston, and the aforementioned "Love Train" - prominently featured in Ridley Scott's blockbuster smash The Martian, starring Matt Damon.
